There is no FTP access to free blogs from and being free hosted by wordpress.COM and we cannot upload individual plugins into those blogs. On this forum we provide support only for those with free blogs from and being free hosted by wordpress.COM

If you can use plugins then you have a wordpress.ORG install for self hosting and you are posting to the wrong support forum. You must to be post to http://wordpress.ORG/support/ to get support for your wordpress.ORG install.

Why? I'm not sure you can do what you are suggesting on WordPress.COM, not only in terms of technological limitations, but also in regards to the terms of service. Perhaps another volunteer could confirm?

After they have a username, then you can go to settings > privacy and add their usernames so they have access. They would log into their account, and then they could navigate to your blog and read it.

What purpose does that servegeven that you can moderate all comments? I don't get it. Having to register with a blog in order to comment on it is a deterrnat to becoming a reader of the blog.

I would like my blog to be visible only to users I choose – You would use this setting to create a private blog. If selected, another area will appear where you can control which WordPress.com users will be able to log into your blog to read it (those users will only be able to read your blog, they will not get access to your dashboard to edit your blog, please see the section on adding users if you want to give people edit access). You can add 35 users to your private blog, and you can purchase the Unlimited Private Users upgrade if you want to add more. http://en.support.wordpress.com/settings/privacy-settings/

We have been receiving questions like yours and what they really amount to is that some wordpress.com blogger really want a forum and not a blog. We cannot embed a forum or buddypress in wordpress.com free hosted blogs. Buddypress is as raincoaster has indicated gor those who have self hosted wordpress.ORG installs.
Read the differences here > http://support.wordpress.com/com-vs-org/

When it comes to wordpress.com blogs you can get a free forum from a site on the interent and link to it from your blog. Perhaps that will suit you.
